Sorry ive been a rams fan for 30 years. Definitely holding on lake both times. Were they ticky tacky? Maybe but sometimes you gotta take off the beer goggles and call a spade a spade
How can he hold a guy and still be 3 steps behind. That was the first one. These guys always put their arms around the reciever at that point of the route. They are trying to keep track of the receiver and keep an eye on the QB. I disagree.

I believe the rule mentions inhibiting the receiver's progress.
 
Landman is making Reeder more of a has been…
I'm in the camp that if they had put Reeder on the practice squad, nobody would have picked him up.

Pooh Paul on the other hand, I think is going to end up being a player.

He was nicked up in training camp so I don't even know how they made their evaluation of him.

Officiating was so so bad. I'm sure non Rams fans will look at Houston having more accepted penalties, but man....those ones on Lake, fine....but you're telling me the Texans didn't touch our WRs a single time? They called the hands to the face that was so obvious they couldn't miss it .....but it took Adams freaking out about it AND the flag was late. On a third down in the fourth quarter he got hands to the faced again and it wasnt called.

Call it consistent.

The offensive hold on us before we iced the game.....truly exploded my mind. I'll assume it was a blatant one (since they didn't show the replay) - but those backup linemen were holding our guys on every play. Again, call it consistent. After the sluggish start, we outscored them 14-3 and would have been 21-3 if not for that fumble.

Secondary did fantastic....if I had one gripe, it would be that Chubb had too much success running the ball behind that battered OL. DL kept rushing late integrity better in the second half.

I actually liked the decision to punt instead of trying a 57 yard FG - what followed was a forced punt and then the offensive drive that was going to ice the game before the fumble.

Landman will be remembered for making the game saving play. Reeder, unfortunately for an unnecessary hold on a kick return that would have made the ending much less dramatic. Is Pooh on a 53 man roster?
Problem is Reeder has been around the world and ay-yi-yi. Still making boneheaded mistakes got knocked by Speights. I feel like Landman and Speights are our Reeder and Rozeboom. Both Reeder,Rozebum both has beens.

It's possible even the Rams saw it this way but they likely wanted a veteran with Dolac in the reserve role on the 53, Pooh went unclaimed I believe before signing as a FA.
We have 3 really solid ILB's and that is better than years past, I wouldn't sweat it whether or not Pooh turns out better

Watching the game live, the only time I felt we might lose was after the Allen fumble.

What was sweet was I was keying on Landman down there and saw him obviously trying to punch the ball out. I didn’t see the ball come out or Fiske recover it but I saw the punch out. So much fun.

Allen didn't fumble. He scored the only touchdown through the air and committed a penalty, but that was it. It was Parkinson who nearly fumbled the game away.

Parkinson better give his game check to Landman, in all seriousness.

Karty handling kickoffs as he landed two of them in the landing zone area and brought the Texans at the 20-yard line. Both were touchbacks BTW!
